dpd project [VERSION 2!] [Full List of Discs] [FAQ] [Find A Song or Band] [Message Board]      

Welcome to DPD!


The DPD Project is a thematic mix-CD project created by music geeks and best friends Chris Diamond, Chris Prokop, and Michael Darpino.

Each CD in the project has a theme that ties the songs on it together. For every theme we each pick five songs that we feel best represent it. The collected fifteen songs are then mixed together in alternating order based on our last names. The songs that end up on DPD are meant to be the very best songs for their particular theme.

We write liner notes for each song to explain why we picked it for that theme. The project has grown into a sort of musical memoir over the years since music has been and still is such a huge part of our lives.

Random DPD Pick:


Seele Brennt
by: Einstürzende Neubauten
from: Halber Mensch

Picked By: diamond
For: DPD: 033 - Sprechen Sie Parlez Vous Yo Hablo Deutsch Francais Espanol Eh?

When I got into the showdown of songs here, I was trying to not use a German song. There are just too damn many good ones out there and I was hoping to represent another language that might otherwise be ignored.
On to plan b. I ended up with a song from Germany, and more than that I ended up with such an obvious and predictable choice, but how the hell do you beat this song? Actually it was a real close race between this and Der Leiermann by Covenant, which sounds so cold and unemotional, one can only think of Germany when listening to it.
